    Ebay Alum Radiators

    Ok, now that makes more sense ;) This thread really belongs in the General section...moved. There's a thread going on right now about the different dual core radiators available...look here: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=103723

    Ebay Alum Radiators

    What?!?! This sentence doesn't make sense.

    Leaking coolant from under CPS and above manifold

    In that case, next would be the 90 deg hose that connects the hardline around the block to the water neck.

    to fin or not to fin?

    An '89 with a '87-'88 spoiler? Is this a NA? Personally, I like the stock spoilers.

    Leaking coolant from under CPS and above manifold

    First thing I would look at are the turbo coolant lines.

    Which Radiator is better?

    Mine is natural aluminum.

    Which Radiator is better?

    ^^^ For the most part, that is a true statement...the OEM radiator will handle the heat load nicely. It's when you start really upping the HP the motor starts becoming a heat generator. Add an auto tranny to the load (especially in the oven I live in) and the stock rad shows it's limits...

    Too High EGT's?

    Thanks Kenny, but this guy is a punk with an attitude. Something I do not have to tolerate and will not deal with. He will get no further assistance from me...ever. <Mod hat on> Back on topic.

    Zum - What happened to CSF?

    Too High EGT's?

    It's really, really simple...If you don't have the time to read my posts and answer the questions (instead of assuming), I don't have the time to help you. Common courtesy is seems to be history with a lot of guys here. My ignore list seems to be growing daily lately.

    Too High EGT's?

    I guess you don't want my help. Good luck figuring it out.

    Which Radiator is better?

    It may (no experience with a PWR), but think about how a radiator works. With excess radiator thermal capacity, the T-stat will modulate fluid flow to the radiator. The coolant will reach the rated temp of the stat and stay in a tight range. Under heavier load, the stat will open more (to the...

    Which Radiator is better?

    A dual core radiator is a requirement in AZ IMO ;) I was referring to in comparison to the CSF radiator...the Fluidyne and Koyo are also a huge increase in capacity over stock. Did an edit on the previous post...sorry bout that. A very good friend of mine has a Fluidyne radiator here and...

    BOV installed, just double checking.

    It depends on the car if the stall is an issue or not. It all depends on what else has been done to the engine. This is correct: I don't know if anyone mentioned it yet, but the SSQV has an optional recirculate fitting available. As mentioned, an auto tranny has less of a problem with the...

    Oil leak coming from somewhere above t-stat? (Many pics, 56K)

    Clean the motor and put UV dye in the oil. Shine a black light on it in a couple days and you will have your answer ;)

    Which Radiator is better?

    Yes, it does...the thermal capacity of a dual core radiator is significantly greater than stock. You also increase coolant fluid capacity. Josh - I have a CSF radiator (dual core), fitment is perfect and I experience no over heating issues during the summer. Not true for the stock...

    No start

    The coil pack ground (from the plate to block) is a field ground...the ground to fire the coil packs is a different circuit through the harness. Next time it does this, wiggle your CPS wires and try to restart. Another possibility is the plug wires.

    oil weight selection based on track use.

    Berniek - Based on his 1st post, I think it's due to high G turns on the track.
